“It was just almost surreal, it was just a fight-or-flight, like I just have to remove us from this situation and make sure that we’re at least in a safe place,” Eberhart said.

Matt Cameron, a spokesperson for the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency told WATE this is not normal bear behavior.

“It’s really not typical bear behavior for them to come on to someone’s porch and start looking for food," Cameron said. "That means those bears have been around humans and have received handouts or have found a food source around a dwelling."

"We didn't do anything to encourage them and we would never do anything to encourage them. We really respect the wildlife," Eberhart to WBIR. "Just really kind of shocked it all happened. We are extra cautious."

Police arrived and helped to get the one bear out of the cabin and the others from the porch, but not before they were able to grab a few sweet treats.

“They got five pounds of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and a pound of M&M’s and two pounds of Sour Patch Kids, and two bags of potato chips … two beers and two Diet Cokes and about 20 Zyrtecs,” Eberhart told WATE.
